Yes, caused by numerous things such as - industry, new construction and the use of the river by watercraft, especially to dispose of their waste - including floating houses and the river commercial fleet comprised of more than 3000 boats. Around 200 cruisers, 500 boats for passengers, 1600 boats for carrying commodities and 300 motor boats, in addition to 400 floating hotels. The links below addresses just one aspect of construction and a paper on pollution

Generally speaking, the Amazon River has huge quantities of silt and organic matter in it. This is because there is so much water moving along it and because it drains such a vast area of land. The Amazon accounts for about a fifth of all the river drainage in the world, so it handles millions of tons of "stuff" along its course. It isn't all that "clean" in the sense of it running "clear" like a mountain stream. During the rainy season, the problem is amplified, as you may have guessed. A link can be found below.

Africa is fairly dirty with diseases. Considering how most of Africa is the plains and the wild, I would say not as clean as the U.S. by far.
